Counterfeit IC products show exactly the same outside chip markings but generally are of poor quality

and causes Windows driver compatibility issues (Yellow Mark Error Code 10 in Device Manager under

WinXP, Vista, and 7). This warning is issued to all customers and consumers to avoid confusion and

false purchase. Please purchase only from stores or vendors providing technical and RMA support.

Driver Installer program from Prolific Support website:

http://www.prolific.com.tw/US/ShowProduct.aspx?p_id=225&pcid=41

Note: Please take notice of the installation order. First, run the Driver Installer Program before

plugging in the USB to Serial adapter. If you already plug the device during the driver installation, you
